Sending back my plates

[Stizz]

Ive had elk plates on my pickup for years…and i always hoped that maybe, just maybe that money was doing something good for the species.

The last couple years its become painfully obvious that it’s not. So, i scrapped the plates and went back to the standards. That said… id like to send them back to WDFW along with my thoughts on the matter.

Any recommendations for where to send them? Does the commission have a mailing address? All i can dig up is the general addresses. I’m guessing they’ll wind up in a trash can regardless but on the off chance it might make someone think about it for 10 seconds i’d like to do it.

I have no info for you,  but I also gave up my mule deer plates.
Why pay an extra $30.  Heck I dont even buy the discover pass.  I feel with buying my sons and my licenses that come close to $500 annually, thats enough.

Dumped my #428 elk plates too 10 years ago
Sitting in garage window
Nice relic to when the state really cared about cloven hoofed wildlife

Put them on the wall of your man cave. Sending them to the WDFW will have zero effect. You may opt to send them to your state Reps. That might get a message through.

I had some until I found out money was going toward the wolf program.

You could turn them in in-person after a nice rant during the "open input" portion of a commission meeting.

Hang them in your garage. Take the energy and money you save and do something productive with it. Most of the Comissioners are happy to frustrate a sportsmen and reduce the enthusiasm  for the activity. That $30 would cover a WWC membership.

Join F4WM and do some actual good by helping cover wolf trappers expenses in Idaho.  Many of the wolves they target cross into Washington.

Photocopy them and mail them a copy........like the man said.....them belong in your man cave.

Take that $ and buy yourself a couple jugs of Idaho Gold

6 or 8 years ago I read somewhere that money from those special plates was going towards wolf reintroduction in Washington. Thats when I stopped paying for them.

I pulled my elk plates when I found out money went towards wolves.  They are now in my garage.

Made dust pans out of ours...........

I had #18 of the deer plates. After I found out that the most the money was going towards the wolves I stopped paying for them and got regular plates. I still have the plates in my man cave.

I wouldn’t send yours to them, you have to much invested in them.

I was about to send my mulie plates in when we moved anyways. Sad what happened in WA

I've had personalized since the 70's when it started.  Then got the elk plate.  Stopped several years ago with the wolf deal.
